Re: Now You're Flying Virgin Australia

I concur, the beef pie is great. I would love to have chicken and vegetable pie in the menu also.
 
Re: Now You're Flying Virgin Australia

Oh what about a really well done mash potato as a side with the pie *drools*
 
I hope they still have the pie! I haven't had one yet and I have my first DJ evening flight >2 hours on the 14th! Everything else I have been doing has been MEL-SYD returns so haven't had a chance to have one yet!

I had a Pie on a 1 hour 20 minute flight CBR-ADL a couple of weeks ago. I asked if they had pies and was surprised when she sad yes. I was in row 3 and it came almost instantly. And yes, it was hot.

The first DJ Pie I had was PER-ADL just after they started serving them. That one took an hour to arrive! I guess they're getting better at heating pies now :p
 
The new menu is here and they've killed a lot of the better products. At least so far as I can see. No more G&Ts :(, no more flatbread crisps. No booze at all except beer and wine. The only new thing I saw was a Pastrami sandwich, which I didn't try because I had a big lunch.

Here's the menu:

That is a rubbish menu... Where has the normal Orange Juice gone for starters, the Karmarama Juice isn't nice at all I don't think..

Was hoping for more than that, they should have changed the wording to, "new menu with even less of an option coming soon..."
 
When did AJ move to DJ - thats a shocker change!

And $8 for so-called 'Premium' wine?? That's taking the mickey.

QF were only $6 last time I was on a flight that was not complimentary wine and beer in whY (which was about 3-4 months ago).

For their attempt to go 'Premium' I still don't understand why they're insisting on charging for everything, only providing them complimentary to expensive fare holders. Surely that just adds to the workload of a crew on a short sector?

Very little variety at all, where is some good old chicken wraps or orange juice or something like that?
 
So obviously they have eliminated the unpopular ones from the menu. Afterall, they are better off storing more of favourites than do unprofitable transportation of unpopular food.

I would like to see Virgin Australia's take on this.

I agree with you there but why not add other options?
 
Wow. All of the things I order aren't on the menu anymore. I usually have an Orange Juice in the morning, and a Hot Chocolate in the evening. Both seem to be gone.

The Hot Chocolates were very popular. No idea why they have gone. There doesn't seem to be much variety anymore.

I was under the impression they were going to rotate the menu, so we don't get tired of the same thing. But all they have done is taken items off!
 
Yeah, I used to love the chicken wraps, right up to the food poising incident!
Hahaha, but it was the supplier's fault, they got rid of them and started a new contract with another company :).

They took out the cheese and replaced it with sun dried tomatoes. I guess the ham was too expensive.:(

Seriously, I thought there must have been some pages missing. It was pathetic. Maybe they are cutting way back on the regular menu and are about to launch the premium menu? (Note on the website there are two links - one for regular and one for premium - but they both go to the same place for now)
 
wow, that is embarrassing Virgin....

We want an explanation ASAP because this is just disgraceful.
